Basketball Ninjas Official Announcement

Greetings one and all.

We here at the Basketball Ninjas, would like to let it be known that we exist.

Now, this may strike you as a little different, a DoE on our 462nd day of existence, but,

we pride ourselves on doing things a little differently down at the Basketball Ninjas. :)

Obviously most will have never heard of the Basketball Ninjas,

so I present to you this short graphic novel, which depicts our origins.

In this adventure, we join our heroes Jack Shepard and Hannah Montana,

over one and a half years ago, before the Basketball Ninjas were concieved:

Section 5: Players and Front office positions

1. The Basketball Ninjas are a team where all members of the organization have a locker room voice on important decisions.

Section 7: Defensive Plays

2. The Basketball Ninjas may, in certain situations, choose to assist players of other teams who have had offensive plays run against them, even if they are not Basketball Ninja players.

I saw the thread title and was wondering why you guys were making a DoE so late.

Best of luck, not that you've needed it so far :)

Also, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it would be terrible for any alliance's mid-lower ranks (30k and below) if they found themselves in a war against you.

Screw timeliness. Not my style either. :P

Sorry if I missed it (I looked around out of curiosity but couldn't find anything), but are you guys protected? If not I'd suggest you look into something to protect yourselves from tech-raiders and other such complications that can plague vulnerable alliances.

why the magic? just curious.

The beastly Dwight Howard and their impressive play-off run last season probably had something to do with putting them into the spotlight.
